Buy an AC delete kit from summit or somethin you get two brackets usually and you move your PS pump up to where the AC was. Its Easy

he has a 95.... you dont need anything special to delete the a/c or smog pump aside from a shorter belt.

Also 95droptop, you can remove the crossover tube from the back of the heads and install a 5/8"-11 bolt into the thermactor hole. Install one per head.

if your not sure what im talking about... when you look on the back side of the heads, youll see the tube im talking about!

on our cars, you do not need a delete kit for the smog or the a/c

the smog pump as a rossover tube that runs between the two heads ON THE BACK OF THE MOTOR.
when you remove this crossover tube, yu must plug the holes that are now exposed on the back of the heads. they are threaded... and a 5/8-11 bolt fits in them... you want the bolt to be no longer then 3/4"

yes, we all know that removing the a/c doesnt really add any power to the car, or free any up. but people like myself who dont use the a/c... EVER would like to remove it for the fact that it opens up the engine bay a bit. I had a bitch of a time putting my headers in because the a/c was in the way. Now that its gone... changing my spark plugs is even easier!
